    Problems with utorrent 1.7.7

    Hi,
    I have recently got a new computer with Vista and have installed utorrent 1.7.7 onto it. The problem that I am having is that it seems to work fine with some trackers but not at all with others. I try to download a popular torrent, it shows the number of seeders etc (sometimes), says it is downloading but then it doesn't do anything.

    I have forwarded the ports (6881) and checked that they are open OK and utorrent is on my firewall (windows and kaspersky) exception list. I have tried it both with DHT etc enabled and disabled.

    I have also tried earlier versions of utorrent but have had the same problem.

    ISP - BT
    Router: ZyXEL P-660H-D1
    Client: utorrent 1.7.7

    Any ideas?

    Thanks.

    Never mind. Port 6881 is banned by most sites apparently. Fixed now.

    Thanks anyway.
